How I Narrowly Escaped Assassination – Buhari
President Muhammadu Buhari has recounted how he narrowly escaped a targeted bomb attack in the Kawo area of Kaduna in 2014.
Reminiscing on the unfortunate incident, which claimed the lives of many innocent Nigerians, the President said he remains grateful to God for sparing his life on that fateful day on Ali Akilu road, Kawo-Kaduna.
The President said this on Thursday while commissioning the Kawo Flyover project done by the Nasir El-rufai administration.
